When building private houses there are many nuances. The prosperous operation of the house directly depends on whether the roof and the foundation are properly made, how the walls are lined, and whether the whole structure is well insulated. All this needs to be thought out even at the design level.. Otherwise, over time, the house will start to produce surprises, and it will take time, effort and money to correct errors.

Most often, the projects of small houses include the presence of a kitchen, living room and utility rooms on the first floor. The second is usually located bedroom, office, children's room. It looks tempting option when you can go out to the balcony from the attic. But its arrangement can cost much. Such a move would be justified if the site for the house is very small and there is no extra space for arranging a cozy corner.

For small country and country houses attic is a great opportunity to get additional space inside which you can arrange any room for permanent residence.

The attic is located under the pitched roof, so when designing it is necessary to take into account that its height is not too small, at least in the lowest part it should be one and a half meters, and the highest point should not be below two meters. Otherwise it will be a very low room in which a feeling of discomfort is possible. Being in such a room would be unpleasant, for an adult.

When planning the construction it is necessary to take into account that Attic rooms should have a sufficient amount of natural light and air intake, which means that full windows should be provided there. Of course, this room also requires full insulation and ventilation.

From what to build a house, each owner decides individually depending on financial possibilities.

The advantage of brick houses is obvious, they are more durable, convenient to use. But brick is one of the most expensive materials.

Frame houses are especially popular, especially when it comes to a country house. The frame structure can even be assembled independently in just a few weeks. After all, all the details of such a structure are customized at the factory, which facilitates its assembly.

Another advantage of the frame house is that it does not shrink, which means that after the construction of such a structure, you can immediately settle and continue finishing works in the premises in parallel.

There are also disadvantages in frame houses.

• Poor sound insulation. In order to avoid disturbing any noise from the street, it is necessary to think out an additional system using modern materials.
• This house is not suitable for those places where there are hurricane winds, there is a risk of damage to structures.
• The walls of such a house "do not breathe," which means you need to take care of the ventilation and carefully think over its structure.

Materials suitable for this type of construction - foam concrete or aerated concrete. Both materials are considered light and durable, but have their differences, which you need to be aware of before choosing one of them.

• They are made using different technologies. Aerated concrete loses foam blocks in terms of moisture absorption. In winter in cold weather this can lead to the destruction of the walls. But, on the other hand, any surfaces are treated with a primer or coated with a facing material.
• But, according to experts in the construction field, aerated concrete is considered to be a more durable material than foam concrete.
• Ecologically, both materials are considered safe for use in the construction of residential buildings.
• During shrinkage, the foam concrete wall may crack, but this will not occur with a gas concrete. But foam concrete keeps heat better.
• As for the price, the foam can save on construction about 20% of the funds.
